no_preprocess flag #44

Closed smnorris closed 6 years ago

smnorris commented 6 years ago

On re-running the script I think it might be simpler for the designatedlands process command to have a --force_preprocess flag rather than --no_preprocess.

Preprocessing is slow and is required at least once - the script could check for existing tables and skip the tiling/prep when the prepped layer already exists. A user that wants to redo the tiling/prep could call --force_preprocess. Calling the preprocess routine by layer might be valuable too but does not seem like a priority.
